Looks like a serious attempt to do the flow test will occur this week.

Wave heights are on until Saturday :

NSO Fortune, Havila Fortune, Vos Sentinal, Maersk Finder, Betty Knutsen.

Here we go people

Confirmed test now underway.

Did nobody notice that the flow test had commenced?

Sorry !! I read that the last post was 10 hours ago,

flying today,weather window is there!!!!good luck all

now then, now then ..... at what level should one prudently lock in some (more) profits?
as a guide, 330 was the recent all-time closing high

4 on its way, surely?

why? ..... satisfactory flow has yet to be proven

we're having a good day people's.......

just being optimistic :)

Cynic there is no reason why this should not flow,also weather window is good, i think the share price can double on good news from here.

If we sell, can anyone advise where to invest the proceeds ??

AGQ or CNR or KEFI for me.

Personally I'm holding out for 5-7 range on this but a few other interesting oillies out there - take a look at DPL, COV, CHAR, CAZA, BPC, PROV, RKH to name a few or RRR/ACQ/MARL if you want to diversify a wee bit albeit still in high risk category...

for sure BPC is a total crap company with no assets at all - trade it if you must, but don't kid yourself that it is anything more than blind hope supported by blind fools

if i was to reinvest profits from XEL and was determined to stay with oilies, from your list (of the ones i have even heard of), i would go for COV and RKH ..... if you want "real" companies, then TLW and AFR (especially) should be on your list

==========

marky - if only life were that certain! ..... on balance, i think XEL will announce a good result, as then they will be able to place shares at a much higher level than today

Nothing is for certain Cynic i think that is one lesson i have learnt from you and a profit is not a profit till banked.

Holding 5 figure numbers in RKH and XEL and DES if i can get out at a profit in DES i will and put it into RKH.......i think!!!!

i think i'ld be very happy for you to make a profit on DES, even if that would mean me having to cut my losses! ..... just hope you remember to bank some this time

i'm surprised to note that volume is only 1.7m so far

Some good heavy buying at moment very few sells should see a tick up
